TORONTO - Four decades after The Goal, Darryl Sittler still has the stick and the gloves that produced one of the magical moments in Canadian hockey history.
But they don’t sit on a mantle. Nor are they nicely displayed in any kind of trophy room.
“I think they’re in a closet somewhere,” a chuckling Sittler told Postmedia Friday. “Doesn’t mean I don’t remember what they helped me do, though.”
No, Canada, Darryl Sittler hasn’t forgotten. And neither has an entire country.
Indeed, this past Thursday marked the 40th anniversary of Sittler’s goal at 11:33 of overtime on Sept.
